Ultrasonic plastic welding (UPW) is a promising method for joining carbon fiber reinforced thermoplastic (CFRTP). The interface temperature determines weld quality to a large extent. This paper numerically analyzes the contact behavior and temperature characterization during welding using harmonic balance method (HBM). The simulation and experimental results show that amplitude and welding time are important factors determining the interface temperature. Increasing amplitude and welding time can significantly increase the interface temperature. Plunging speed and trigger force have little effect on the interface temperature. For nonlinear contact and heat generation, the results show that there is a certain separation between workpieces and the heat source is mainly friction heat generation in the early stage of welding. With the progress of welding, there is no separation between the workpieces and viscoelastic heat generation begins to dominate.

Electrochemical nitrate reduction to ammonia (NORR) is promising to not only tackle environmental issues caused by nitrate but also produce ammonia at room temperatures. However, two critical challenges are the lack of effective electrocatalysts and the understanding of related reaction mechanisms. To overcome these challenges, we employed first-principles calculations to thoroughly study the performance and mechanisms of triple-atom catalysts (TACs) composed of transition metals (including 27 homonuclear TACs and 4 non-noble bimetallic TACs) anchored on N-doped carbon (NC).

Cobalt-based oxides have attracted significant attention as p-type thermoelectric materials due to their wide operational temperature range. However, their low average figure of merit () value has hindered service performance. A series of cation vacancies as Ca-active sites were introduced into CaCoO (0 ≤ ≤ 0.

Spontaneous bubble growths in liquids are usually triggered by rapid changes in pressure or temperature that can lead to liquid gas supersaturation. Here, we report alternative scenarios of the spontaneous growths of bubbles inside a high-saturation-vapor-pressure and high-air-solubility perfluorocarbon liquid (PP1) that were observed under ambient quiescent conditions. First, we investigate spontaneous bubble growth inside the single PP1 phase, which was left to evaporate freely.

Cu/Diamond (Cu/Dia) composites are regarded as next-generation thermal dissipation materials and hold tremendous potential for use in future high-power electronic devices. The interface structure between the Cu matrix and the diamond has a significant impact on the thermophysical properties of the composite materials. In this study, Cu/Dia composite materials were fabricated using the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) process.

The ion binding to the lipid/water interface can substantially influence the structural, functional, and dynamic properties of the cell membrane. Despite extensive research on ion-lipid interactions, the specific effects of ion binding on the polarity and hydration at the lipid/water interface remain poorly understood. This study explores the influence of three biologically relevant divalent cations─Mg, Ca, and Zn─on the depth-dependent interfacial polarity and hydration of zwitterionic DPPC lipid in its gel phase at room temperature.
